Description

As discussed on the dev list, we need to adjust the cross-module dependencies to compile against trunk instead of hardcoded ODFDOM 0.8.7, Taglets 0.8.7, etc.

I made an attempt to consolidate Maven build and propose the following structure under a parent POM:

pom.xml (root) (modules: taglets,generator,xlst-runner,xslt-runner-task,odfdom,validator,simple)
     +---- taglets
                 +-- pom.xml  (parent: root)
     +---- generator
                 +---- schema2template 
                         +-- pom.xml  (parent: generator)
                 +---- schema2template-maven-plugin 
                         +-- pom.xml  (parent: generator: dependeny: schema2template)
     +---- xlst-runner
                 +-- pom.xml   (parent: root)
     +---- xlst-runner
                 +-- pom.xml   (parent: root)
     +---- xlst-runner-task
                 +-- pom.xml   (parent: root)
     +---- odfdom
                 +-- pom.xml   (parent: root dependeny: taglets)
     +---- validator
                 +-- pom.xml   (parent: root dependeny: odfdom)
     +---- simple
                 +-- pom.xml   (parent: root dependeny: odfdom)

Summary of changes:

1. All sub-projects inherit the parent POM. This allows us to build and test all components in one go.
2. As per http://www.apache.org/dev/publishing-maven-artifacts.html, the parent POM inherits the Apache POM.
3. I changed the groupId to "org.apache.odftoolkit". The Maven artifacts should fit in the Apache namespace.
4. Initial version is 0.5-SNAPSHOT
5. [IMPORTANT] To test the build I had to restore OdfFileDom#getAutomaticStyles(). Please revert this change after applying changes from https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ODFTOOLKIT-49
